Touring M52B28 (another one from Ireland)

[Jozi]

Thats it really, I've made a start on tidying up the wiring for the bay. Gonna try and hide as much wires as I possible can.

Wicked we need more tourings.

Its funny all the Americans see rust and are like



You guys in Ireland are all like



And us Australian are like

[Jozi]

Lol, it's a case of there being little or no rust free shells I think. There's a lot of rust that hides and just gets worse until it breaks the underseal and you see it.

[Jozi]

Just a small update, got started on the wiring around the bay yesterday, going to tidy it all up and re-route some wires to make it a little neater in the bay.




Suggestions how to go about this welcome! Have some idea's but someone might have better ones!

Sounds much louder than expected with only the exhaust manifold, she's a little shaky, injectors are clicking away and idle is around 16-1800rpm (4cyl clocks). No idea if this is good/bad!

Well done on the touring

Small side-project I'm working on. No idea when I'll get round to refurbing and widening but at least 1 wheel is now split :D

It's been a little quiet in here so I thought I'd put these few pics up here.












Marty's sending a panel my way this weekend with a few colours on it for me to decide on what I want to go with.
